Opposes Bridge Location. Opposition
to the proposed location of the high bridge
across the Willamette River, which is at
or near Hancock street, yesterday took
form at University Park. A remonstrance
was prepared in which it Is set forth
that the place .selected for the bridge is
too far south and that it will not ac
commodate the Peninsula. S. G. Sibray,
of the University Park Board of Trade,
said yesterday morning that a strong
eiTort will bo made to have the bridge
located further north. "Located where it
Is proposed," tie said, "it will not benefit
the Peninsula, where there will be a
great population In the near future. Be
sides It is too close to the railroad bridge.
The peuple generally on the Peninsula,
so far as I have talked with them, ex
press this opinion. They are not op
posed to the erection of this-bridge, but
are opposed to the place selected for It."
The University Tark Board of Trade will
take up the matter next Monday night.

THIEF GETS CURIOS
Valise With Valuable Contents
Stolen in Hotel.
LOSS MORE "THAN $500
John McPherson, Recently Dis
charged From United States Xavy,
Loses Jewelry, Etc. Bought
During a Long Cruise.
The mysterious disappearance' from the
office of the Merchants Hotel of a suit
case filled with valuable papers that can
not-be replaced and rare curios, gathered
from all parts of the world, has caused
the police to institute an Investigation
Into what Is regarded as the most serious
hotel theft in Portland in many months.
The suitcase was the property of a guest
of the hotel, John McPherson, formerly of
the United States Navy, and the owner
says that while no estimate can be placed
on the value of some of the articles, ow
ing to their associations, the intrinsic
value of the contents of the case was over
JS00 and that he will willingly pay a
handsome reward for Its return. Mc
Pherson has been In the city three days
having come here from San Francisco
where he received his discharge from the
Navy. He went to the Merchants Hotel
and having this suit case among his be
longings and not caring to risk it in his
room, placed It In care of the office re
ceiving in return one of the regular hotel
baggage checks, No. 43.
McPherson recently returned from a
cruise almost around the world In the
cruiser Galveston and during his service
on this vessel Invested a coiftiderable por
tion of his pay In Oriental jewelry and
curios. All of these he kept separate
from the rest of his effects and packed
them in a suitcase so that he could al
ways have them at hand during his trip
to Boston, Mass., where he resides.
He visited Portland for a few days with
a desire to see this portion of the Pacific
Northwest before his return East and
was preparing to leave for Boston when
the discovery of his loss was made. He
is now remaining in the city in the hope
of recovering his property. The suitcase
remained in the care of the hotel office
during the three days he was taking in
the town but yesterday when he presented
his check for his baggage it could not be
found.
The hotel proprietors were unable to
throw any light on the disappearance of
the case offering the suggestion that
perhaps some other guest may have taken
it In mistake for his own, but this. Mc
Pherson says seems very Improbable as
his name was plainly stamped on one end
of it and the brass tag with which it was
checked was almost new and there would
be very little probability of mistaking the
number.
Among the papers were Mcpherson's
discharge papers showing honorable serv
ice In both the Army and the Navy, as
well as the discharge papers of his father
who was a soldier in the Civil War, and
who is now dead. McPherson last night
gave the police a list of the articles which
the case contained and said that If they
were unable to trace the theft he would
sue the hotel people inasmuch as the case
was properly checked.
While the papers would be of little value
to anyone else, the jewelry and curios un
doubtedly would, says McPherson. as
they might easily be disposed of to dealers
at a high figure. The 'police have as
signed detectives to make an investigation
and McPherson will put off his return trip
to Boston until the case and its contents
have been found or the hotel proprietors
have made a settlement.
FRED FRITZ FINED $50
Police Court Finally Passes Sentence
on Variety Manager,
It has taken the city authorities
three months to stop up all the en
trances devised by Fred Fritz between
his saloon on Burnslde street and his
variety show adjoining. During all
that time a misdemeanor charge has
been pending against Fritz In the Muni
cipal Court, weekly continuances be
ing granted in the case to allow him
time in which to board up the various
passages connecting beer hall and show
hall. Every few days 'Fritz- has been
in the habit of reporting that the work
was completed, but on each occasion
an inspection has revealed the fact
that Fritz left some obscure means of
passage.
The patience of the court authorities
has caused considerable comment. Upon
reporting that he had fully complied
with the law, Fritz was fined $50 for
his fracture of the ordinance.

ASSAIL IMMIGRATION LAW
LAWVER RESISTS DEPORTATION
OF HIS CLIENT.
Latter Is French Woman Whose
Moral Character Renders Her
an Undesirable Citizen.
By attacking tho sufficiency of the
Immigration laws. States Attorney
James F. Gleaaon will seek to prevent
the deportation of Louise Reaux. alias
Flora Duran, a French woman, whom
the immigration authorities located In
a house of ill-fame in this city and al
leges to be unlawfully in this country.
CJn Gleason's petition for a writ of
habeas corpus the woman .was released
yesterday on order of Judge "Wolverton
on' depositing $500 cash bond. Leave
was also granted to file an amended pe
tition, which will probably be argued
today.
The lawyer for the woman contends
that she cannot be reached by the im
migration laws of the country for the
reason that no saving clause was in
corporated in the act repealing the
law of March 3, 1903, nor in the law
of February 20, 1907, saving and re
serving to the United States the right
to deport aliens entering this country
in violation of any of the provisions
of the act of March 3, 1903. It is the
contention of Mr. Gleason that since
his client came to the United States
January 14, 1906, she cannot be de
ported under the law of 1903, and since
she was a resident of this country
when the act of February, 1907, went
into effect, July 1, last, she is exempt
from the provisions of that law.
John H. Barbour, local Inspector of
Immigration, who caused the arrest
of the woman, has reported the facts
in the case to United States Attorney
Bristol, who will represent the Gov
ernment when the case comes up In
court. Mr. Barbour says the Govern
ment experts to accomplish the depor
tation of the undesirable alien under
a section of the act of February, 1907,
which provides that any alien female
who is found in a house of iil-fame
within three years following her en
trance to the United States shall bo
deemed to have landed in this country
unlawfully and be subject to deporta-

siderably Interested in the legal point
that has been ' raised, since, it is of
vital importance relating to ' their
work in detecting and deporting for
eigners who are brought into this
country for Immoral purposes.
Under the provisions of the
